Newtown back in action tonight

Newtown head into the tough Phase Two of the season tonight with a trip to current champions and league leaders TNS.

Newtown secured the sixth and final spot for the elite end of the league season with a fine run of mid-season form, and now face 10 matches against the five rivals above them as they bid to strengthen their position for a post-season shot at Europe.

Meanwhile, Welshpool Town will be looking to fly the Mid Wales flag into the last four of the FAW Trophy, but they face a tough task.

Anglesey high flyers Holyhead Hotspur visit the inconsistent Maesydre side who booked their place in the last eight of the Central Wales Cup last week with top scorer Will Thomas bagging all four goals.

Elsewhere, resurgent Llanfair United, Llanrhaeadr and Guilsfield are all at home in the JD Cymru North.

MMP Mid Wales League Division One leaders Llanidloes Town travel to Four Crosses, while there’s a local game in Division Two with Abermule hosting Waterloo Rovers.

Amateur League favourites Guilsfield Reserves are back in league action at Trefonen.
